HIS TOUCH || JAEYONG

Chapter 38 man from Paris

"Jaehyun, mom said-"

"Go away! Don't come in my room without knocking!!" He hid under his blanket as he was crying. He wasn't in a mood to talk.

He had never before felt this much unwanted and not loved. He felt like he and Taeyong never had mutual feelings for each other when they were together. Like he had been the only one with so much feelings involved in their relationship. Taeyong didn't even fight for him when he said that he wanted a break. Didn't even explain. Or look at him.

"Oh my god are you crying? Like actually crying?!!" He sniffled.

"Please go away-"

"Did you and Taeyong-"

"Don't say his name!!" Ji-Eun sighed. He had never seen her brother like this and it made her worried. She walked to the bed and sat beside Jaehyun who was hiding under the blanket. "Go away..."

"What happened?" She asked calmly and heard the other sniffling again. She patted the blanket but Jaehyun didn't move.

"I- I broke up with h-him..." He said stuttering and feeling like breaking into tears again.

"Oh..." She hadn't known they had it that bad. What even happened between them? "I thought you liked him-"

"I love him so much."

"Then why...?" Nothing made sense to her. She frowned.

"H-He doesn't care about me like- like I care about him," That was not how it looked like to Ji-Eun. What was his brother talking about?

"Come here," She patted the blanket. "You need a hug."

Jaehyun didn't do anything at first but then the covers moved and he sat up. Almost immediately he hugged her tightly needing to hide his puffy eyes in her shoulder. He felt so weak.

Ten had to practically drag his friend to school saying he was being a good friend when he cared about his education too. Taeyong tried to think about anything else but the certain someone but everywhere he looked, he saw him. He saw Jaehyun's dimpled smile but then his cold expression. Then his harsh words kept playing in his mind hurting him even more.

Friday was better. Slightly. Actually not. He had noticed that Ten had started to cling very close to him. He walked wherever he went in school. Even bathroom. Even walked him home. Ji-Eun didn't say anything about Jaehyun. Maybe she didn't know.

The weekend he stayed home. Ten called him many times. Too many. Taeyong was getting irritated by his constant need to check up on him. He didn't want Taeyong to feel alone but he didn't know that all he did was annoy him.

The phone rang again. He was laying in his bed, reading a book as a distraction. He sighed and reached for his phone to tell Ten to stop calling him.

"Ten can you please stop calling me already? I'm perfectly fine and you calling me doesn't actually help at all!" There was a silence. Was he too harsh?

"Oh...well, I don't know who's Ten...it's just your big bro," No way. He checked the caller id quickly. Oh no.

"Oh my god! I'm sorry I didn't mean to yell at you, Hyungie," He cursed internally. It had been so long since he had last time spoken or seen his big brother and now that he called, he wasn't prepared.

"Yeah I figured...Aren't you gonna ask why I called?"

"Sorry I was just too surprised that you called...in a good way of course. So why did you?" He got up from the bed and started pacing around the room.
